Support Aircraft range radius

Does the max aircraft radius range listed in Airstrike.cfg reflect round trip or one way, i.e. 1000 km would be 500 km max radius range if round trip from base or is it 2000 km if round trip?

In looking at some of the different Airstrike.cfg files in various mods, they seem to vary from 1000 up to 2500 km.

Some of these look awfully large and not realistic aircraft ranges. Been looking to possibly adjust some of these to more reasonable ranges from bases.

Good hunting,
FUBAR295

I believe it’s the max distance in one way.
But game takes in consideration also the max range of each plane in Data/air...
So if the plane have 500Km max distance, it couldn’t fly up to 2500Km!

You are looking in the wrong direction. Each aircraft has its own cfg,

MaxRadius=
as a rule, it is specified in the aircraft _en (_ge).log file

Thanks Anvar1061 !!

I know about those, it was the ranges listed in the Airstrike that I was interested in as they did not correspond with the files for individual aircraft specs.
